Erm... did we reach a conclusion about whether those const's were
really optional?  In a const method, there should be a const on the
type of 'this'.  Obviously we won't get it in g++2.95/stabs, and I
think we agreed that the latter const is optional (on the *); but the
const on 'A' should be part of the type of this for a const method.
